Tank Top Tuesday: Olympics Edition Part I

Right, remember when I said I was gonna write a lot about the Olympics? Toldja. Also, a technical note. For the interest of these Olympic Games I shall be expanding the official definition of “tank top” to include “sports bras.” I hope we can all agree at this small technical point of order. And with that, please enjoy the show.

Lolo Jones, United States, hurdles

I just started following her on The Twitters. Her tweets are almost as funny as her abs are impressive.

Katie Taylor, Ireland, boxing

Is it possible to be adorable and intimidating?

Federica Pellegrini, Italy, swimming

Stretching is hot important.

Yelena Isinbayeva, Russia, pole vault

Quiet, I’m having a religious experience.

Jessica Ennis, Great Britain, track & field

Now I wish we’d never had that revolution.

Saori Yoshida, Japan, wrestling

Maybe I should watch wrestling more if it ends up like this.

Sophie Schmidt, Canada, soccer

I call her the Canadian Rapinoe.

Amélie Cazé, France, modern pentathlon

I did not realize looking like a badass was an Olympic sport.

Valerie Adams, New Zealand, shot put

Another kind of gun show.

Caster Semenya, South Africa, track & field

Gender test this..

Allyson Felix, United States, track & field

Take out the dictionary definition of “fast” and insert this picture.

Natalie Cook, Australia, beach volleyball

That’s alotta gay lady laying herself out. Ahem

The Netherlands, Field Hockey Team

Tank dresses totally count too. And four members of the team are out gay ladies. So Dutch treat, indeed.

MissMissy, spot on! The US olympics coverage on NBC is RIDICULOUS! Stuck one more day watching the mens individual finals in gymnastics, but wait... I can see only the 2 americans' performances, barely getting a bronze. What about the other athletes? The games are global NBC!

Sorry for hijacking this post, Ms. Snarker. Back to the regularly scheduled hotness... Federica Pellegrini rocks!
